The Virus is a polyphonic and multitimbral hardware synthesizer based on DSP rather than analog circuits, and might be the finest modern synthesizer of all time with an excellent tone and fantastic effects. Ultra One is a great collection of sounds based on the Virus TI synthesizer. There is a plethora of sounds in this soundset, such as dynamic basslines, lo-fi drumloops, analogue and organic pads, emotional guitars, vivid synths, punchy basses, lyrical pianos, dramatic percussion, widescreen hits and impacts, expressive mallets and bells, ethereal textures and dark soundscapes.

Matt Bowdler is a master of creating some rather unique score-ready soundsets for any virtual synth out there. You can’t have a best-of list of synth patches without The Unfinished.
